So how does working at Whitewater keep you out of trouble? I'm gainfully employed as Creative Services Manager

Since when? I joined in December 2003.

Why Whitewater? I'd always wanted to work in London, and after four and a half years working for an agency in Hampton as Traffic Manager, I decided it was time to move on and experience something very new. Whitewater was different to anything I'd done before. I had no DM or charity experience, but thankfully I was given the opportunity to try it out and I'm still here. The people are great, and even though at times things can be really busy and stressful, when I hear a job is performing well, it's worth it.

Your favourite moment so far? A photoshoot involving two eight-week-old kittens and a lot of mud.

Your best incentive? Compliments.

Great interview - thanks!
